While taking a shortcut recently trying to avoid road construction, I came across this partially painted water tower. I couldn't decide what it resembled more - some sort of space ship or a Big Green Egg. It could also pass as an amusement ride at the state fair.
What do you think it looks like?
This water tower is located just off Lakeland Drive (Highway 25 North) in Flowood.

Good morning Pat,
Looks like a typical government job and that it ran out of money to finish!
Make yourself an astonishing day.

Good morning, Pat Starnes OMG..I love Raymond E. Camp 's comment.... I can't compete with that one...
Good morning Pat. I am not sure what it looks like but it certainly other worldly.
I keep looking for the one that has Jimmy Bob loves Darlene in John Deer Green. ;)

Looks like a space ship to me, I wonder what planet it will head to when it is finished, haha.

Hi Pat - I vote for an amusement ride at the state fair. And yes, I also like Raymond E. Camp 's comment.

I agree with Raymond E. Camp and that it looks like a government low end bid gone bad. However, this is my hometowns water tower. Snazzy huh?

Sussie Sutton - a watermelon? Now that's creative!
It should have vines and flowers on the leg work!
I cannot complete with Raymond E. Camp comment either. As I began to allow my mind to ponder about it ... I just laughed and surrendered to the fact that Raymond really nailed it.

Good morning, all! I'll drive by in the next few days to see if they finished the paint job. Thanks for all the comments!

I instantly thought it looked like a ride you would find at a State fair!

Pat, I'd say Martians could be pouring out of this one at any moment!

The ride at the amusement park fits well. I have never seen anything that looks like that.
Looks like a military training tower for rappelling practice Pat Starnes. Do you have any Army Rangers on your contact list that might want to entertain themselves ?

Well I couldn't decide what it looked like but I think Raymond may have said it best.
We don't have those out here, I suppose because of earthquake. The water tanks we have here all low to the ground

It looks like one of the training towers I used to have at boot-camp to do the repelling drills
I've seen rides that look like that where they swing you around. No thank you! It's quite monster isn't it?
